DrNutt posted:WA state is pretty weird. Politicians here keep putting income taxes on the ballot, and people keep voting them down, so regressive taxes just keep getting added and increased to make up for it. What I don't get is why they don't make a bill that introduces an income tax while simultaneously doing away with the sales tax. That might actually have a chance if voters can be decently educated. My guess is there may be something in WA State laws that prevents this, but I haven't looked into it that deeply. Either that or we just have lovely politicians which I can absolutely believe also. Pretty sure your guess is right. I can't see that getting passed the single topic initiative rule.
